Made this tonight. It goes in this order somewhat: massive carbon osc w/slow lfo, distortion and mda detune(instant reese!), band pass filter w/lfo assigned to frequency(and lfo on the frequency of the previous lfo to change how fast its....ahem....wobbling), light compression, roll off lows(I supposed I should have put the high pass before the compressor, ah well...its a low ratio anyways), phaser, delay, reverb, ferric tds, another limiter after that lol. Then send tracks to split low and not low frequencies so the sub is mono'd and the rest is affected by the spectral autopan vst by anarchy sound software (neat plugs!). Some of that may or may not be used in this sample. I made a few variations. Fun stuff with headphones and it works out alright in mono. I'm starting to replace fear of stereo effects crumbling when mono'd with knowledge of how to prevent that. ...I had a mishap where I used a "Stereo Enhancer" and I had headphones in and when I played it the next day on my laptop speaker, all the higher frequency stuff wasn't playing because the left and right channels were inverted. (Sounded great on headphones though )
...Kinda got derailed there...anyways please tell me what you think!

Pretty cool sound there artie!
This is a new drum and bass WIP that I feel like has some pretty cool alarm type sounds and reese sounds all made with Massive. Soundcloud

Thanks! I liked that build up of the synth in the background. Very nice. Care to elaborate on the sounds when the drums kick in?

Ok, so basically the jist of what i did was make a really simple reese in massive: two saws one at 0.13 cents up and one at 0.13 cents down and changed it to monophonic, added some glide and turned it to have 3 voices with the pitch cutoff up just a hair (if you don't have massive you might not get all the terms I'm using but basically just make a standard saw reese). I made the melody I wanted, in this case just 2 notes. Then I loaded it into NI's Kontact (if you don't have Kontact you probably still have all the effects I used). I put on a bit of chorus, then saturation, then skream distortion (not your typical tube distorion, more like the stuff you can get out of izotope trash or guitar rig), and then a phaser. I resampled and then imported it back into another instance of Kontact. Then I added some distortion and some light reverb in kontact. Next I put on one of kontacts bandpass filters and went to work. I assigned an lfo to the cutoff of the bp filter, another lfo to the depth of the first lfo, and then another lfo to the speed of the lfo. I then basically created about 10 different patches with different settings on the different lfo's. From here, I created a line taking the parts I liked the most from the different patches. Then I put on some fruity overdrive, camel phat's distortion, camel space's saturation and exciter, and EQ'd to taste. That's basically it. All the distortion and verb were really just used to thicken it up (and rather just adding one instance of heavy distortion, I used many instances of subtle distortion), most of the interesting parts of the sound come from the phaser and the modulated bandpass filter. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask.
Re: Post an interesting sound you have made thread
Just a bit of a drum and bass track I'm working on.
This is niceeeeee! Would love details.
Filtered reese with vibrato?
Both sounds are made from the same reese, just resampled in different ways. The original reese I actually made in reason. I'm sure you could make a very similar one in whatever vst you use but I personally have tried with Massive for ages and can't get anything that has the crisp highs that this has (I know you can, I just can't seem to do it...). Anyways, If you're really interested I'll export a patch of it and send it to you. What I did in reason would take far too long for me to explain. But once I finished the reese sound itself, I imported it into FL studio, Eq'd it to taste (it already had the vibrato and alot of the movement-> the movement in the sound is Thor's sine shaper assigned to an LFO and the vibrato). Then I added some tube distortion via Camel Phat. Then I stuck on a low pass filter and maunually modulated the cutoff to open as each note holds. Then I stuck on Camel Space, and modulated its exciter and saturation to sort of follow the modulation of the lpf, so as the filter opens up, so does the amount of exciter and saturation. If you have any other questions or want the patch, feel free to pm me. Hope this helps.

Add a bunch of reverb and delay and that would be a sick atmospheric spacey pad

Well I had a little bit of delay and reverb to make it kinda spacey already but.....I tried out a bunch of reverb with no dry signal and got this: Soundcloud
Reverb with no dry signal is very interesting with different sounds.

Take white noise, low pass at 80, highpass at 30, boost at 45.
Gain it up and compress to get rid of the excessive dynamics.

Interesting idea. That'd be wicked to hear/feel on some nice subs. I've gotten a similar sound(except slower) playing different sub notes into a huge reverb. You hear something like that in movies during certain parts where its just...."sub noise" ominously rumbling.

Nice man been after sounds similar to this.

^^ Ya if you download my autopan bass and then chuck that into some reverb(or maybe instances of the same reverb, I don't remember exactly) with 100% wet signal and 0% dry signal, you'll get pretty close to the exact same sounds. I used one of the reverbs in renoise. So just pick your best/favorite reverb and make some scapes! If you stack up like 3 or more of the same reverb with all wet signal, you get some pretty crazy stuff depending on the quality of the reverb. With the mpReverb 2 in Renoise being abused, I get this really dark building sound that has a huge dynamic range! So watch out when you use multiple reverbs. I find Classic Reverb to have a really metallic sound if you abuse it and it can be interesting depending on what you feed into it. I spent one day sending subby stuff into a bunch of different reverbs and then filtering the sub and bringing up the level a lot. I love reverb.

I remember this shark movie had a part where it was mostly silent and then there was sub bass rumbling like this sound and you knew it was gonna get intense. Or there was gonna be a thunderstorm
